I saw X-Men First Class yesterday, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Putting aside the niggles like deviations from the source material, the film is fun and feels fresh. The actors mostly do a great job and the plot is pretty cool. I liked it a lot and laughed at some lines and got excited about some cameos and Easter Eggs I spotted.
At first I was worried this movie would be terrible and a step down even from X3 and Wolverine: Origins. In fact it improves on both those films. I do read X-Men and know a fair amount about the characters and world from the comics, and while the films may never represent that perfectly, they seem to be on the right track again.
